I had lunch at the Heights Lounge. The location provides great views overlooking the lakes. The server named Maura made lunch more enjoyable with awesome service and a friendly personality.
The bedroom doors were marked. The breakfast on the first morning was cold, and poached eggs were hard (like rocks!).

The views of the Killarney lakes were gorgeous (a real highlight!). I enjoyed a top-class massage by Anna. The swimming pool and jacuzzi were fabulous.
I thought the rooms were basic. My latte arrived cold. Instead of a king bed, there were two single beds pushed together (not ideal). I also heard noises from the sink and toilet throughout the night.
